This control, when dropped on a borderless form will size itself to that of the form, and wala you have a new window. The window has all the abilities of the normal windows, it can be maximized, minimized, and can be manually resized. Also has a nifty lost and got focus effect, like that seen in Visio 2000 Professional. If you like this please drop me a line and tell me, or if you want to see something in it that isn't and don't know how to do it then let me know and I'll try. Once you load the control, click on the (Custom) property to see how to set up the form focus effect (only 2 lines) ***Update 1 11/21/01*** I found a temporary solution to the Focus effects problem but I'm still looking for a better method, check the control out and let me know if you know of a way to solve this is like api or something. ***Update 2 11/21/01*** FORM FOCUS EVENT PROBLEM FIXED, COMPLETELY FUCTIONAL NOW.... This control now uses SmartSubClass from www.vbsmart.com, you must have it in order to use this control, but its worth it, they also have some other sweet free controls..

This is the alpha version of my XP Menu system. Menu is flat with shadow as Office XP menu. Great and simple code that using subclassing. Working only in popup menu, to test, please, right click on form ...

This is a fully customizable message box that is backwards compatible with the standard microsoft message box. It has 3 additional parameters that tell it whether to autosize and what size to be. Using my FormatRTF function..which is also posted seperately on PSCODE, you can include tags to format the text any way you would like (see screen shots). There are no limits to the uses of this box. It can be used as both a Regular or Bottomless Message Box and Includes the ability to set Default Button and the Help Button. It is a function and will return integer values that can be compared to vb constants (ie: vbok, vbretry) so you can determine what the user clicked. It is vaguely commented (if that) because I just decided to throw it up here. If you don't understand it, Now is a good time to Learn!! Hope someone finds this as usefull as I have...(Comments and Enhancement Requests Welcome) - ENJOY!!

Lots of Features. Includes Currency Formatting, Numeric Validations. Functions as a text box or Number Box (Toggle a Switch). Forces All Upper Case, Auto Highlights, Follows Insert Mode, Tabs on Enter Key. Neatly Arranged Property pages (I suggest you strip them out to lighten the load if you dont want to lug them around). It works great for me..I hope someone out there finds this usefull (Comments, Enhancement Requests, and..unfortunately...bug reports, are all welcome) Enjoy!!

This simple program shows how you can prevent anyone from using an illegal registration code that was generated AFTER your shareware program has been released. The user must have an active Internet connection when he starts your program. However, you can put checks in other parts of your program also. You must have web space to place a text file of the illegal names/codes. Sample program is included.

This is basically a smooth-scrolling progress bar that is able to take a caption. I know there are loads of these already on the site, but the code is well commented, and wth anyway :)

This control was used in several commercial applications that I've written as an on-screen Help system. I've included the prototyping code (non-api) and the flicker free API version. I hope this helps someone ..... Happy Coding!

Replicates MS Works 2000 horizontal and vertical menus. Displaying Disabled Items, Hover Items (Hot Tracking - v1.01), ToolTips (v1.02), Graduated Selection/HiLite (v1.03), Seperator Lines, etc all configurable. Demonstration application included to demonstrate all the features of the controls. Please vote for this project & happy coding!

This light-weight OCX not only remembers when a form is resized, but also when it is moved; handles MDI Parent/Child forms and SDI forms; a CenterForm function that works in both MDI & SDI forms plus if the TaskBar is visible! Drop the control on a form, add one line of code (see screenshot) and the OCX does the rest! Two example apps are included to demonstrate MDI & SDI usage. Enjoy!

Have you ever wanted to add Multi-Node Selection to your application? Many people here and in the newsgroups have wanted this feature. Here is a working prototype! Enjoy...

This project was put together as a learning tool to better understand how to capture Windows Messages using subclassing within a OCX. Capuring Windows Messages in a executable is very straight forward - however within an OCX, it's a whole new dimension. This project demonstrates how to overcome the difficulties without using thrid-party products or external DLLs. Keep your eye on both the Immediate Window and the UserControl's ListBox in both Design-time and run-time whilst resizing, minimising, maximising, moving, clicking, etc to better understand how the UserControl and Windows Messages Work. I hope that you get the same benefit from using this code as I did coding it!

With this code you will able to move your text from bottom to top in form.Great for Splash Screens. NO OCX needen

This is a multi-columns listbox with many feature like background picture, apparence, AddItem ,RemoveItem, ReplaceItem, IntegralHeight, Caption alignment, Column alignment and many more...

This is a multi-style command button to add to your applications. It can emulate seven different styles at a very accurate way!!! see the screenshot to belive... you will really be astonished. And the best of all: no external dll's or ocx's need to be used, an even the XP button is ownerdrawn!!! A must have for any coder. UPDATE!!! now it supports cool color changes!

Have you ever wanted to have your project set up to have people have to register with you to unlock certain parts of the project. Well, i have made a simple to use control just for this purpose. Just slap this control onto a form, set a few values, and you will be able to generate custom keys depending on the name of the users computer, or a serial number. You can also use a combonation of these to make a harder to crack key. What the code does is, if the setting is set to ComputerName, it finds out the name of the computer, goes through my alogorithim, and makes a key for that name. When the use puts that key into a text box or something, you can call my control to see if that key is correct. The control will respond with a boolean value, if the key is correct, it will be true, but if the control determines the key to not be right, it will reject the key with a false value. This code is heavily commented (prolly more comments then code), but the code is effectivly explained (well in my eyes it is), and will show you how to set this up. Also included in this visual basic group, is a sampel program giving the basics on how to use the control. This is only version 1.0, i plan on updateing it with more features in the future, maybe something along the lines of add a demo-time limit function to it, where it will only allow the user to use a program for a specified amount of time. Feel free to use this code in your own programs, but if you just copy/paste it from here, i would apprieciate some credit. :D. If you have any questions/comments/or anything else, post here, or email me at theendorbunker@home.com. Last, if you use this, and if you want, place a vote on this project. Thanks for reading, and i hope you enjoy this program.

This is a generalization of the clsPrintAvery5352 code submitted by Bernard J. Tucker on 11/27/1999. This version of the class will print any label that the calling routine can describe. The zip also contains a VB project to show the use and an Access database of label partameters from the Avery Web site (legal).

lightweight compile in display bar... give users something to look at while they are waiting...4 animations to choose from..adds about 16k to your exe. Dont forget to check my sight for more stuff: http://geocities.com/dzzie

With only 6 lines of code, create an awesome new tab replacement that can be customized to any color, font and size that fits your application.

This application demonstrates a customized popup menu, with a "rolling" (vertically scrolled and gradually revealed) effect. It works by using a second form embedded within the first as the popup menu. For more code samples visit my personal web site: click above on my full name.
